This recipe works great as an appetizer or as a side to pasta dinners.

Ingredients

6 slices, Joel's Bread Loaf

Olive oil to brush on bread

1 tsp garlic, minced

2 plum tomatoes, diced

Sea salt and Freshly ground pepper

1 tbsp lemon juice

1/2 tsp Italian seasoning, gluten free

1+1/2 tsp olive oil

Parsley or cilantro to garnish

Method

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.

In a bowl, add the diced tomatoes, lemon juice, 1 +1/2 tsp olive oil, garlic and Italian seasoning. Toss together lightly and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Lightly paint one side of each slice of Joel's dinner loaf (or other gluten free bread) with olive oil using a pastry brush. Place the bread oil side down on the parchment. Bake for about 10 minutes or until slightly toasty. Remove from the oven and turn the oiled side up.

When ready to serve (it's best served warm), spread some of the tomato mixture over each slice of toast and cut each slice of toast into 4 pieces. A pizza wheel (cutter) works well for this. Do not spread the tomato mixture too soon or the bread will become soggy.

Garnish with some fresh cilantro or parsley.

Enjoy!
